Defence Minister Roberta
Pinotti said Monday "we will be inflexible" on the case of two
Carabinieri suspected of raping two US university students in
Florence last week.
Pinotti, who as defence chief controls the Carabinieri, a
paramilitary force, said "we will ge to the bottom of this, and
punish those responsible".
One of the Carabinieri has reportedly admitted having sex
with one of the young women but has claimed it was consensual.
The other has yet to admit having sex, according to sources
close to the case.
